Wii 25-in-25: The Last Story

BT writes: My previous Wii 25-in-25 entry for Xenoblade Chronicles was one of two games that may owe its North American release largely to the efforts of Operation Rainfall and today we will be looking at the other title from that campaign, The Last Story. Of course, The Last Story was linked to Xenoblade long before Operation Rainfall came around thanks to a number of factors. These include both games being announced at around the same time, both being major hardcore releases for a system that by that point in its lifetime was perceived by many as accommodating to such titles, both being RPGs, and even the fact that both were created by developers with former ties to the Final Fantasy series (in the case of The Last Story, no less than Hironobu Sakaguchi a.k.a. the original creator of Final Fantasy himself).
